If Boys Over Flowers was done 15 years ago… With all the hype over this addictive drama, netizens have scrutinized every part of it from the supposed foul language in the script to the not-so-“one-of-a-kind” necklace. Let’s take a break from all the criticism and pause to ponder on this interesting thought: What if Boys Over Flowers was made 15 years ago? Never mind that the CG in the current version is already bad enough; 15 years ago, many of the current “seasoned” actors would’ve been teenagers, just like the actors portraying the characters. Who do you think could’ve been the new F4 + Jandi? Here are some examples to get your creative juices flowing: Jang Dong Gun as Goo Jun Pyo This makes total sense " Jang Dong Gun is supposedly the “hottest guy in Korea”, and Lee Min Ho, the current actor portraying Jun Pyo (as if you guys didn’t already know that) has skyrocketed to fame since playing the role and is now one of Korea’s most wanted males. It’s not hard to find someone who can pull off the ajumma curls; Jang Dong Gun has it down pat. Bae Yong Joon as Yoon Ji Hoo Who would be better to play the brooding, quiet character of Ji Hoo than the original brooding and quiet actor? Bae Yong Joon has already shown us that he can play the sensitive type of guy in Winter Sonata (never mind his portrayal in The Legend for now). Somehow I can totally picture him playing the violin in the woods " and I probably wouldn’t burst out laughing like I did when I watched Kim Hyun Joong. Okay, maybe I would. Jung Woo Sung as So I-Jeong The role of the playboy is being done well by pretty boy Kim Bum, but what if we had a really manly sizzling hot specimen of humans’ finest playing the character of I-Jeong? If you watched Jung Woo Sung in The Good, The Bad, The Weird, you’d know what I was talking about. His look can go from rugged to polished in a second. On top of that, he’s got those soulful eyes that you can’t help staring into. Ahhh…it would almost be a waste for him to be in the less-important half of the F4. Lee Jung Jae as Song Woo Bin I know Woo Bin is pretty much the most “extra” member of F4; he just has to stand there and look pretty. It would be a waste for Lee Jung Jae’s acting ability, but hey, he’d be in the top-rated drama in Korea, so who’s complaining? Lee Sang Ah as Geum Jan Di To be honest, Goo Hye Sun’s portrayal of Jan Di annoys the hell out of me. Lee Sang Ah is a great actress and I’m sure she can play the sugar-and-spice combo without making me want to switch the channel. She’s has sweet appeal and looks like the girl-next-door. 15 years ago, these actors would’ve been about 20-21 years old. Would Boys Over Flowers induced the same craze and interest in the drama back then? Credit: http://blog.naver.com/taeoklove
